It was only 8mins walk to BTS(Bangkok transport system) and also a ben is stand by to take you there by only 20baht. Very quiet area, but still in the middle of city and conveniently installed with modern system, wifi, air-conditioning, etc. Most importanly, the host is very supportive to those who visit Bangkok for the first time. You can instantly get help from him when you feel like you getting scamed from a taxi driver for instance. You wont regret the time at his place.
